Traveling through the infinite wasteland

?

"Maybe, maybe not! However, what else can we change?" Chen Yan originally planned to persuade her, but then she thought about it and added:

"Go find His Majesty's aunt! For her sake, things will almost turn around!"

The Yun family's mansion.

The owner of the house, Yun Tianqian, had finished dinner not long ago and was chatting with Yun Linjie in the study.

"Brother, the Xiao family has made a lot of money this time!" She said angrily,

"Not only does the queen's place fall into their family, but the first heir has been designated! If this continues, how will Yun Xun'er adjust?"

"What's the hurry?" Yuntian Qian calmly filled the pipe in his hand with shredded tobacco, lit it, took a deep breath, and said slowly:

"The position of queen falls to the Xiao family. This is what I expected before! No matter how good Yun Xun'er is, she can't hope for this position because of his father! Otherwise, none of the other imperial concubines would agree. ! But what about the first heir... Although it is a bit beyond my judgment, your Majesty currently only has this princess. If you don't appoint her, who can you appoint? "

"Is there no hope for Yun Xun'er?" she said with great reluctance.

Yun Tianqian said calmly: "Of course not! Didn't you notice? Your Majesty only appointed the first heir, not the crown prince! This means that things can still turn around, if Yun Xun'er can give birth to an heir in the future! "

Yun Linjie raised her eyebrows, already aware of it. The first in line of succession and the crown prince seem to mean the same thing, they just have different names! However, upon careful analysis, there are still differences!

According to the practice of the upper class society in the Star Sea world in this era, the ranking of the heirs of the family race is determined by the family head and the family race Venerable Association after joint discussions!

Regarding the underage children, arrangements are based on blood relations, the power of the father's race, the power of the mother's race, etc.; and for the children who have grown up, their respective talents and abilities are also included. The contribution of race and other crucial reasons!

After the order of the heirs is determined, it is not set in stone. Every two years, the senior members of the family race will jointly inspect and evaluate these children to determine whether their abilities and performance are worthy of their order! As long as you are outstanding enough, you can definitely make your ranking rise all the way!

Even if he is almost the first heir, there is no guarantee that he can take over power smoothly! If they don't work hard enough, they may be squeezed out by the people of the same race behind them!

Such an approach is to inspire the diligent and progressive spirit of the children of our race, and there must be no neglect!

In short, Princess Yun Qixuan's current status as the first heir can only guarantee that she has the priority right to inherit, but it is not the only right to inherit! If His Majesty the Emperor has other children born in the future, and their performance as adults is better than hers, then her status will not be guaranteed at all!

However, the crown prince is different. He is the heir to the throne expressly stipulated in the imperial constitution and has the sole right to inherit! As long as there is no serious fault and the emperor cannot bear the thought of abolishing Li, no one can take away this right!

After guessing that she had passed this level, Yun Linjie took a breath and said again: "However, His Majesty's cultivation is getting better and better. It will not be an ordinary difficulty to give birth to an heir in the future! You have to find a way!" "

"What do you mean?" the head of the family asked calmly.

"There are many unmarried women in our race. I have seen a few of them. Their talents and appearance are not inferior to Yun Xun'er. Why don't you let Your Majesty take them all together? Sow more and reap less, that's about it..."

Yun Tianqian smiled bitterly and twitched the corners of his eyes: "Let's expose it for now! Your Majesty's current resentment towards our race has not been completely eliminated! Why might you accept such an arrangement? The Qi family has tried it before, but he rejected it! What's more, Is it me who is waiting?”

"It's better to look at other methods! For example, if the recent project in the ethnic research institute succeeds, it may be possible to develop a drug that increases the chance of pregnancy for high-star awakened people! By that time, Isn’t the problem solved?”

"This plan has already cost hundreds of billions of crystal cores, but we haven't seen much hope of success yet!" Yun Linjie said with some heartache, "I don't know how many resources we have to fill this bottomless pit before we can have anything. What was gained?”

Since His Majesty the Emperor took away more than 70% of the family's racial property, the Yun family's economic and fierce fighting capacity has been greatly reduced. It is really difficult to support such a costly project for a long time!

Yun Tianqian waved his hand and said: "That's okay! We don't need to maintain so many troops now anyway, so all the resources saved can be invested in the project! As long as it succeeds, our race will have a new life. Opportunity to arise!”

Yun Linjie looked at it and felt it made sense, so she stopped objecting, changed the topic, and continued:

"I heard that the few remaining races in the imperial capital are planning to invite Her Majesty the Queen to hold a palace dance! At that time, unmarried women from all races will attend!"

"Is this prepared for the emperor again?" Yuntian asked with a smile.

"Isn't that true? His Majesty the Emperor's harem is empty, and the Great Purge has not yet ended. Those races are stepping up their preparations in order to protect themselves and win His Majesty's favor!" Yun Linjie sighed,

"Not to mention anything else, the Augustin family is watching the only three remaining aristocratic families, the Yunzhou family and the Yunzhou family have women entering the palace, but there is no one from their own family who can speak in the palace. , isn’t this anxious? There is also the Feng family. Although Leng Zhuo is favored by His Majesty, she is the late emperor’s concubine after all, and it is said that the impact of being away for a period of time will not be good. Therefore, the head of the Feng family plans to ask Your Majesty to accept another one. A woman from this race is your concubine! There are also other races who are all trying to figure out how to find out about His Majesty’s temperament and hobbies, hoping to get what they want!”

Yun Tianqian thought for a moment and said softly: "Based on my understanding of His Majesty, even if he estimates that he wants a woman, he will never choose one from this circle. The heads of those races are destined to be disappointed!"

Yun Linjie has no objection to this point of view! Ye Qingyuan was afraid of wealthy families, but he did not hide it at all!

The Great Purge is about to end. In order to stabilize the political situation, he has decided to let things go by the wayside regarding those ethnic forces who are willing to sincerely submit to him! And then Ren used some of them, but that was the end of it. Is he supposed to agree to marry these families and bring them closer to the royal family? Don’t even guess!

"Forget it for others! However, brother, don't you see? The relationship between Su Qinghan and His Majesty seems a bit..." Yun Linjie said hesitantly.

Yun Tianqian frowned slightly: "Absolutely! However, it's nothing!"

"But she is His Majesty's aunt! If that happens, His Majesty's reputation... I'm afraid it won't be good!" Yun Linjie said tactfully.

The head of the family was silent for a long time, then sighed softly, and said sadly: "So what? He is the emperor, the majestic founder of the country, so a slight loss of reputation will actually have no impact on him!"

"Why didn't the emperor make up his mind to annihilate the Yun family? This kid Su Qinghan contributed a lot! If you hadn't been concerned about the attitude of their mother and daughter, would you still have the current results when you became the Yun family?"

"Other people don't know much about it, but you know it. That incident back then..." He gritted his teeth and said: "We must never let His Majesty know about it. Even if he really was with Su Qinghan... just keep it hidden from him!" The lives of millions of people of this race are at stake, so we must not be defenseless!”

Yun Linjie sighed lightly and said nothing more.

At this moment, a maid hurried in and said in panic: "Your Highness! Oh no, the mansion has been surrounded by the Imperial Guards! There are troops everywhere..."

Yuntian's expression changed, and he asked in a deep voice, "What is going on?"

Ye Qingyuan got off the speed car and walked slowly to the gate of the mansion, surrounded by a group of guards.

The sky on the five sides has been tightly blocked by countless warships of all kinds. Large groups of fully armed awakened ones are patrolling back and forth in the five weeks. There are more legions in low-Earth orbit on standby at any time!

A minute later, the door opened, and Yun Tianqian came out with a few maids. Yun Linjie was also there, but none of the guards were seen!

Moreover, even the energy shields and warning systems that had been on around the mansion were all shut down, leaving the entire Yun family mansion in an absolutely undefended state!

In fact, if the emperor is really determined to attack the Yun family, then no means can stop him! Instead of doing this, it is better to be a bachelor and express one's humble attitude to the emperor in this way, which may be more effective! This is the plan of the family owner.

"Your Majesty the Emperor! I don't know why you came here suddenly!" Yun Tianqian came over and bowed to salute, while greeting him humbly.

Ye Qingyuan stared at him coldly for a long time, then slightly restrained the murderous aura around him, and said slowly: "Yun Qing, I have something unclear, and I think I can talk to you about it!"

"Of course! If your Majesty has any inquiries, I will tell you everything I know and tell you everything!" Yuntian said calmly.

"Very good!" Ye Qingyuan walked towards the gate of the mansion, "You arrange a place and we can talk alone!"

The Yun family's mansion.

In the study, the emperor and the head of the Yun family sat opposite each other, silent. The air seems to be frozen!

Outside the cabin, there are many guards, protecting the place airtight! .

In a temporary research institute next door, Tian Song and two high-quality assistants were busy in front of a two-meter-high large-scale genetic detector.

High-end equipment of this specification can conduct the deepest analysis and interpretation of the genetic sequence of any carbon-based life form in the known universe! It is really a waste to just use it to compare whether two different humans are related by blood, and to do it himself as the number one authority in the genetic field!

But this is something His Majesty the Emperor personally ordered, so no one dares to neglect it! Although Tian Song already knew the results, he still followed all the operating procedures and printed out the most detailed and thorough analysis report! It took nearly an hour of busy work to get it done!

Then, he solemnly signed his name and presented it to Ye Qingyuan.

"Your Majesty, the analysis results are out!" He said, "All the data are here, please take a look!"

The head of the family's face remained unchanged, and he looked just nervous at all.

Ye Qingyuan glanced at the stack of documents, which was nearly one centimeter thick, and said expressionlessly: "Just tell me what the result will be!"

"Yes! After careful examination and appraisal, Your Majesty..."

At this moment, Su Qinghan stumbled in. As soon as he saw the situation in the study, his face became paler!

"Your Majesty...what's going on?" she asked with a trembling voice.

Ye Qingyuan looked at her and his expression softened slightly: "It's nothing, I just came to confirm one thing with the head of the family!"

"Really!" She stared at the thick genetic analysis report in Tian Song's hand with some confusion, knowing that things were definitely not that simple.

As Tian Song, why did he appear here for no reason? We also brought such advanced equipment!

Unless His Majesty the Emperor heard something bad and suddenly decided to bring Tian Song over to check the family head’s genetic map!

Ye Qingyuan raised his head and stared at Tian Song, saying: "Tell me the result! What happened!"

"Your Majesty, your genes are indeed the blood of the Yun family!" Tian Song responded, "Duke Yuntianqian is your biological grandfather. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com to confirm this!"

"Are you... sure you're not mistaken?" Ye Qingyuan asked with a suffocated look and some disbelief.

Tian Song said with some displeasure: "Your Majesty, I can vouch for my reputation! It's absolutely true!"

For a moment, the emperor's expression became uncertain, and he remained silent for a long time.

Regarding the analysis results, he was mentally prepared, but he never expected it. The final fact was still beyond his expectation. He was indeed a bloodline of the Yun family!

So, is Cheng Guiyun lying? It seems unlikely. It's now, and there's no need for him to use such clumsy lies to deceive himself!

The face of Yuntianqian on the opposite side was as usual, as if he already knew the result! Su Qinghan breathed a sigh of relief obviously.

"Yun Qing, what's going on?" After a moment of silence, the emperor finally asked again.

"Your Majesty, do you know everything?" Yun Tianqian sighed. He always had a bad feeling, but he didn't know what it was.

"It seems he is right! It really happened!" Ye Qingyuan looked at him and said slowly:

"Who is my grandmother? And those things that happened back then, I want to know all the causes and consequences! Don't say you have forgotten!"

The head of the family nodded gently and waved his hand to signal Su Qinghan to avoid her. After she left for a while, he revealed the secrets from decades ago.

Ye Qingyuan's father was indeed the son of Yuntian Qian. However, what Cheng Guiyun said was correct. Yun Tianqian used some disgraceful means to snatch those two women from his competitors! u
